How old do you have to be......

All children, except one, grow up. Peter Pan Opening words As Nancy and I were leaving the supermarket today she asked "Since my recent birthday, was I now too old to ride shopping carts through the parking lot?"   The answer is an unequivocal  no .  Next time you see an old guy with graying hair and beard coasting through the supermarket parking lot on the back of a cart full of groceries, put one foot on your cart and give a hard push with the other foot.  And, coast over to just say to hi or even better, challenge me to race.
